How do i set up a connection between sql mobile and sql server 2000?
I think all the packages are installed but how can i synchronize data from sql mobile to server 2000 and the other way???
Hi, I need to synchronize a sql mobile database & sql 2000 database.
Someone knows how can I export a SQL 2000 db to SQL mobile 2005 (.sdf)?
Cesar!
I want to synchronize my database on Pocket PC / The Emulator that use WM5 and SQLCE3, but the synchronize is doesn't use IIS as the bridge, but i want to use ActiveSync as the synchronizer bridge. The rule like this.
1. Have database on Pocket PC.
2. Have application on Desktop PC.
3. When device or emulater placed on cradle, then the database automaticaly synchronized with database server on desktop pc.
Why I want to use ActiveSync as synchronizer.
1. I have the Pocket PC cradle. So my device can synchronized using ActiveSync.
2. I have internet connection on Desktop PC. So why i must pay more for GPRS if i only need to synchronize my device with my desktop pc.
Thanks.
Hello!
I don't know if this question belong to sql forum or smart device forum.
So far i was able to sync data between pda and the sql server pc, over a wi-fi LAN using Remote Data Access.
Now i want to do the same but without using the wifi LAN, i mean, i want to be able to over a gprs connection, do the same data synchronization.
My main question is how to get access to the sql server database ? My connection string (obviously) only works in LAN.
My doubt is how can i access my sql server database data ?
I need some help over here, i really don't know how can i overcome my current problem.
Thank you
Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.
Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.
Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"
Dim Conn As SqlConnection
Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)
Conn.Open()
If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
MessageBox.Show("Open")
End If
About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.
Your advice and help is very appreciated
Thank you

I want to create an application for home users which runs on their mobile device (smartphone) and their desktop PC and keeps the data synchronized between them. On their desktop I want to run either SSCE or SSExpress. There are so many options in the SSCE literature, which options should I use? How do I synchronize the data?
The literature has so many options I don't know where to start.

I am looking for a detailed tutorial that explains how to set-up merge replication services for a major project. I have seen all of the claims that SQL Mobile Server 2005 is able to connect to a merge publication with SQL Server 2000. However, where are the tutorials? I must have a proof of concept in a few days to quote this project. Can anybody help with this issue? Thanks!

Dear ppl,
I am writing an application for a device (MDA Pro T-Mobile) having Windows Mobile 5.0 using
-MS .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP-1
-SQL Mobile 2005.
-VS 2005 .NET
The application uses Merge Replication. The error occurs in the Synchronise() Method of the SqlCeReplication object.
"SQL Server Mobile encountered problems when opening the database."
repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);
repl.Synchronize();
I don't understand why I am having this error. It does create the database on AddSubscription() method but it is failing opening the database on Synchronise(). I have also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling all the SQL Mobile components in the following order.
-sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.repl.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.dev.ENU.wce5.armv4i.cab
However, when i run this application on a device(Dell X50 AXIM) with Pocket PC 2003, it runs fine creating the database and sysnchronising it.
The target platform for the project is Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK.
Does any one have any clue what could be the problem ?

Hello,
I am developping a non-managed C++ application for PocketPC using a SQL Server mobile database.
The application is compiled for PocketPC 2003 and uses SQL Server Mobile v2. I use Visual Studio 2005. But I need to compile the application for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. So I installed the WM5 SDK and had the WM5 into my project configuration.
The "ssceoledb.h" which I include incluses the "transact.h" file. But my problem is that this file is only provided with the PocketPC 2003 SDK and not in the WM5 SDK.
So I cannot use the WM5 configuration project with SQL Server. I also tried with the last SQL Server Mobile 2005 (ie v3.0) and the "ssceoledb30.h" also includes "transact.h".
Did I miss something to install ?
Do you know how I can resolve the problem ?
By advance, thank you for any answer.

Hi:
When I try and connecto to SQL CE I always get an invalid operation exception. I"m afraid that I did not follow the proper install for Orcas Beta 2. I can't remember if I was supposed to uninstall SQL Mobile 2005 first or not.
All I know is when I try and use my SQL CE I can't connecto to a DB / sdf file ?
Any help would be appreciated I"m just starting to use SQL CE.
thanks

I am migrating a pocket PC application from VS 2003 to VS 2005 and a few weeks ago I hit the following problem when replicating
A SQL Mobile DLL could not be loaded. Reinstall SQL Mobile. [ DLL Name=sqlceca30.dll]
Scanning forums for help I saw that other people had had this problem and one
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/NETFrameworkCompactFramework/Feb2006/post25814466.asp
suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.
I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is
Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database
My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.
Does SQL Server 2000 CE 2.0 work on Windows Mobile 2003?
Thank you,

View 15 Replies View RelatedHi,
Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.
Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?
thnx,

Hi,
I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.
I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.
However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?
Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.
The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.
Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.
how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?
thank you.

Thanks.

I'm attempting to use RDA to synchronize a pocket pc emulator with SQL Server 2005 database by following tutorial http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa454892.aspx, which uses AdvWorksMobile database that comes with SQL Server 2005.
When get to testing of "To test application features " ( step 4 of the merge replication setup lab ), I am receiving SQLCe Exception errors.
ORIGINALLY, I was able to deploy an application and view the local database on the emulator, but once I clicked "InitSinc" button, I received an error.
"Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not" exist, access is denied because the SQL user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect.
Found this error listed in Server Agent Errors log http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172357.aspx, but it wasn't very helpful since it doesn't provide any suggestions on fixing the problems.
I am brand new to SQL CE Server , mobile programming and .NET framework in general so please bare with me
All the connections / security settings, etc that were set up were taken from a tutorial so I am not sure what SQLCeServer is complaining about. Reading up on the error on the web didn't help, it all pointed to making sure that the snapshot folder had correct permissions set up. I verified that MACHINENAMEUISR_MACHINENAME guest user had Read rights to the database so I don't think that piece is the problem. Otherwise ,Merge publication has been setup in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio by following the tutorial.
I am trying to run this sync on my home pc so there should be no issues with any user permissions
I have IIS installed
I did NOT have SQL Server Agent running in management studio at this time
I am trying to run this tutorial on an XP machine, which is my regular home PC so I dont think there are any special networking settings to consider
I am able to hit http://localhost/AdvWorksMobile/sqlcesa30.dll from my pc OK, but when I try to hit it from a cradled emulator ( after replacing "localhost" with "MACHINE_NAME" ), Internet Explorer on the emulator gives me a "Cannot Connect With Current Settings" error message. This part wasn't part of tutorial but decided so not sure if I am supposed to be able to hit it from my emulator..so I am not sure if the fact that I can't hit it is related to the problem.
AFTER STARTING SQL SERVER AGENTin Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, I killed the application, and after relaunching it, it hits "The Specified table does not exist [Vendor]" error. This time it doesn't even launch first - that is I dont even get to pressing "InitSinc" button. Debugger is showing that this error is hit on the following line in AdvWorksMobile.AddWorksDataSetTableAdapters
int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable);
I am not sure why the errors changed on me after starting SQL Server Agent.
What can I do to fix this connection problem?
Thank you so much for your help!

Hi,
Could someone pl explain how is SQL Server mobile 2005 licensed. Do we need to buy license for each device ? or CAL?
In my app, I need a database which is accessed by .net compact framework app. synchronization is also done by our own app, no direct communication from sql server mobile to sql server db. we have a server side .net app which talks to the sql server and a windows mobile app which talks to the sql mobile db, these two .net apps talk to each other like:
sql server mobile db <--->.net compact framework app <--->.net desktop app <-->sql server 2005
Needless to say, there would be multiple devices having the above setup. However only one desktop side app and database. In this scenario, how would licensing be calculated?

Hi,
View 36 Replies View RelatedI have a working Pocket PC 2003 app that uses RDA to exchange data with SQL Server 2000. I'm attempting to port it to a Windows CE 5.0 device. (I'll be porting to Mobile 5 in the near future, but the gadget I have at the moment is CE).
I installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on the computer running IIS according to package directions, and used the wizard to set up a virtual directory with sscesa30.dll.
The directory I was previously using with sscesa20.dll is still there, and still works.
I set up the virtual directory to use basic authentication without SSL. (I know that's not advisable). I have confirmed that I can reach the URL using the username and password I supplied to the wizard.
When I try to pull data I get the following:
------------------- SQL CE Exception
Error Code: 80004005
Message : An error has occurred on the computer running IIS. Try restarting the IIS server.
Minor Err.: 28022
Source : Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition
I have tried restarting IIS without effect. Any clues?
Can't get winmobile 5 to connect to my sql server 2005 (using vs2005). Here's the connect string:
"Data Source=tcp:XXXXXXdefault,1433;Database=YYYYYY;" _
& "Integrated Security=SSPI;"
This very same string, and variations of it, work in a vs2005 winforms app, but not a windows mobile 5. I'm (obviously) using system.data.sqlclient. MS documentation says it's supported on both platforms with no syntax changes. Any suggestions?
I have use this guide to make a application for windows mobile 5.0. http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/tour/vs2005_guided_tour/VS2005pro/Smart_Client/DataBinder.htm Everything is work. I can add, remove data in the dataset. But i can't update the sql server database. can somebody tell me whats wrong? Nitro.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm currently investigating the feasibility of having SQL Mobile on a number of devices running Windows CE. These devices will have to synchronize with the server (either using merge replication or RDA) over GPRS. The problem I have is that some of these devices will never be online. Is there are a way of synching these offline devices? The model I had in mind was using a USB key (or some other storage device) to download the latest updates from an online device and transferring this data to the offline device, and vice versa e.g. from offline to online and then merging. Is this feasible?
Thanks
